    Poll: Best Director Is ???

    I like Ridley Scott in a "how I would do it" contest. He gets a certain mood in a picture that fits what I would go for if I had the talent ala Bladerunner, Alien, Thelma & Louise and Gladiator. Best 20th century pop culture director Speilberg. But Speilberg has terrific range...

    Gaming with headphones...don't you miss the **BOOM**?

    Go to Best Buy and get a pair of Koss UR30's or UR 20's. They are over the ear and are a great pair of headphones for $20 to $30. You might miss the boom that shakes the floor but these headphones and others that are better (Sennheiser) add little details to music and games that very few if...

If you are on the net, over the age of 10 and posting on messageboards, especially in a manner that is clearly aimed at provoking debate..expect to...

    What are the best headphones out there for the $80-190 price range..

    I have had........ Grado..SR80..$85....Wonderful sound, great for rock and roll but they are supraural. That means they sit ON your ear rather than AROUND your ear. This made them uncomfortable for longer than a couple of hours. My wife couldn't stand them on her ears for more than 15...

    Cable Modem...USB or Ethernet???

    Is there a major difference in ethernet cards? The cable company provided a 10/100 kingston kne100tx but it seems there are as many ethernet cards out there as days in the year. Is any other brand or style better than the next?

    Help!!!..Asus gf 2 pro problem i think....

    I'll try taking the bus down a little but it seems strange that 112 would cause a problem. Ram 133 rev.2 Mushkin I do have the IBM 75GXP 30gig on the ata66 highpoints. But I don't see that as a problem.
